Minix Build failed

[kinect]

Hi Team,

I am building minix in minix. I am running make build which is giving me an error. Hence, as per instructions here I am running command:

for t in gencat locale mkcsmapper mkesdb mklocale 

do

make -C /usr/src/usr.bin/$t all install

done

which gives me error:

undefined reference to errc.

Can anyone please look into this issue?

Thanks.

I posted the same error a couple of days back . I tried a workaround. I installed Ubuntu, downloaded the source code.

After that follow the cross compilation wiki Section: using build.sh directly. If you want to convert it into an ISO then 

after the build is done you can run:

bash ./releasetools/x86_cdimage.sh

This worked for me.

Hope this helps!!!

Okay, so this is very late, but a workaround that I found for this is the following. 

Go into the yacc.c files and find the line that calls errc(arg1, arg2, arg3), replace that call with err(arg1, "") and that fixes the issue without breaking anything. (I don't remember the specific values for the arguments, just make sure the first argument is the same for both error calls). 

I'm not very experienced with this and don't know if this will cause some issues at some point, but so far it has at least allowed me to compile without the issue popping up. 

Hope that helps anyone who stumbles into the same issue.
